... has written two papers in the Journal of Ship research about the evaluation of the wave resistance Green function: one of of the calculation of the double integral and one for the calculation of the single integral on the centerplane. The Green function is written in the following form (see Wehausen and Laitone t14~: 1 1 Tn(X)
From page 126...
... An example for the Green function can be seen in figure 4.8 . The wave character is well observed here.
From page 127...
... So the Pade approximants seems worse here. The Euler function evaluated at x = 1 is wildly oscillating ( when using Taylor expansion)
